About this trial

This is an open-label multicenter, single-arm Phase II study of Fruquintinib in combination with FOLFIRI (leucovorin calcium (folinic acid), fluorouracil, and irinotecan) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The main goals of this study are to:

* Evaluate the efficacy of the combination of fruquintinib + FOLFIRI in the 2nd-line mCRC setting * Evaluate the safety of the combination of fruquintinib + FOLFIRI

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Confirmed mCRC ; histologically documented adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum with at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST v1.

Genetic aberrations are allowed, except for microsatellite instability high (MSI-H) and BRAF V600

Participants must have received first-line therapy for mCRC that included oxaliplatin, a fluoropyrimidine, and a BEV-based agent. FOLFOXIRI, BEV, and SOX/BEV regimes are not permitted. A minimum of 2 cycles of first line of therapy must have been completed.

At least 18 years-of-age at the time of signature of the Informed Consent Form (ICF)

Disqualifiers

Current treatment with other anticancer treatments within 21 days of the first dose of study treatment

Major surgery within 4 weeks of the first planned dose of study treatment

More than one prior systemic treatment for mCRC or any prior systemic treatment including FOLFIRI or irinotecan-based therapy.

Participants who received oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine in the first line neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting (prior to Metastatic diagnosis) and progressed within 6 months are not eligible due to lack of BEV exposure.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • fruquintinib

    Drug

    Participants will receive oral fruquintinib, with or without food, for the first 21 days of each 28-day cycle.

  • FOLFIRI (Irinotecan, 5-Fluorouracil, and Leucovorin)

    Drug

    Participants will receive FOLFIRI once every 2 weeks on day 1 of every 28-day cycle (twice in each cycle). The FOLFIRI regimen consists of irinotecan given 180 mg/m2 intravenous infusion (IV), leucovorin 400 mg/m2 (or 200 mg/m2 levoleucovorin) IV, followed by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 400 mg/m2 bolus injection and 5-FU continuous IV infusion of 2400 mg/m2 over 46 to 48 hours. The 5-FU Bolus may be omitted starting from Cycle 1 Day 1 at the investigators discretion, specifically in participants with a history of cytopenias or toxicities within the first line of treatment.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) rate at 6 months

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) rate at 6 months, defined as the percentage of participants at 6 months who have not experienced disease progression as defined by the RECIST Version 1.1 criteria or death on study. Participants who are alive and free from disease progression will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment.

Time frame
Every 2 cycles from cycle 1 day 1, until disease progression or death, up to 2 years. Each cycle is 28 days.

Secondary outcomes

1

Overall Response Rate (ORR)

Objective Response Rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of participants with confirmed CR or PR (i.e., 2 CRs or PRs at least 4 weeks apart) according to the RECIST Version 1.1.

Time frame
Every 2 cycles from cycle 1 day 1, until disease progression or death, up to 2 years. Each cycle is 28 days.
2

Duration of response (DoR)

Duration of Response (DoR), defined as the duration from the first documented response to the date of first documented PD or death due to any cause. In case a participant does not experience PD or death, DoR is censored at the date of last adequate tumor assessment (defined as an assessment of CR, PR, or SD). DoR analysis will include only responders (PR or better).

Time frame
Every 2 cycles from cycle 1 day 1, until disease progression or death, up to 2 years. Each cycle is 28 days.
3

Disease control response rate (DCR)

Disease Control Response Rate (DCR), defined as the proportion of participants with a best overall response of CR, PR, or SD.

Time frame
Every 2 cycles from cycle 1 day 1, until disease progression or death, up to 2 years. Each cycle is 28 days.
4

Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events

Using CTCAE V5.0

Time frame
Every 28 day cycle, from signed informed consent to 30 days after treatment discontinuation up to 1 year.
